8 BENFIELD CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 BENFIELD CRESCENT sales from June 2004 and August 2007 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2004 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 8 BENFIELD CRESCENT be worth now?
